232. TC Furlong, Sound Company Owner & Musician

Chicago-based live audio legend TC Furlong joins the show in Episode 232 and talks about his journey in founding a live audio company that just celebrated its 50th anniversary, his life as a pedal steel player in a one-hit wonder band, and the details of a tool he invented in the 1980s that many of us still use on every single music gig we do nearly 40 years later! This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath, RCF, and Rational Acoustics.
